I'm off on my hols very soon and I want to get a case for my N1 but specifically one with a lanyard. I'm going to go flying on a microlight and would love to take some photos and videos but I don't trust myself not to just drop the phone into the Jungle! Clumsy oaf.

I've had a good look around and can't find one, I don't really care how the case looks as I'll only be using it for the holiday.. saying that I don't like leather wallet ones so a rubbery wrap would be ideal!

I live in and buy from the UK generally so UK links are much appreciated.

and altho' it doesn't have a lanyard loop I guess you could thread one through the hole that's left for the usb connection at the bottom of the phone - it should be secure enough to stop your phone's skydiving tendencies.
May be worth a speculative 3 quid if you don't find anything else.
Service was great from DCmugen.

Back to the case I have (which actually doesn't come as far up the phone as the one above) I've just, in the interests of research (no, scratch that - because I'm daft and bored!), threaded my sunglasses cord thru the usb opening and whirled my precious nexus about - it seems very secure, I reckon you'd need a lot of force to get the phone out of the case - can't see it happening accidentallly.

who cares? - thanks for the otterbox link, not quite what I'm looking for at the moment as can't be used in the case I imagine, would be awesome for sailors though.

soupdragon - cheers for testing, I found a very similar case on eBay shipping from stoke on Trent. My mate who works at carphone warehouse is going to find me a spare lanyard and I'll do the same as you.
